"Sudoku with elements"

Elemental is an original puzzle game in which you have to become a smart alchemist

Elemental merges two genres: sudoku and alchemy. Your goal is to complete the board without repeating pieces in the same line nor in the same column. However, not all the pieces on the board are "elements", they're also combination of them. Thus, besides water, air, fire and water, you'll have to complete the board with steam, ice, mud, lightning and many other combination of elements.

There are two different game modes: "Normal" (play button) which is the campaign mode. You will have to complete different puzzle through 8 Worlds (ninth is coming soon). In "Survival mode", you'll have to complete puzzle of 4 or 5 elements in less than a minute (countdown).

The game is set in cool cartoonished graphics. Controls are intuitive: just drag the element from the bottom to the tile where you want to place it on the board. If you tap on an tile, it shows a description of the element and (this gives it a touch) a quote related.

It's original gameplay has really surprised us. The game has been well developed regarding concept, scenery and controls. High recommendable.

If you are a fan of games like Sudoku but you are sick of numbers, Elemental is your game! Use your brain to create elements by mixing earth, air, fire and water to solve puzzles.

Complete puzzles as fast as you can and win the high score. You can use tips that teach you how to mix the elements. Each tip contains a famous quote that you can tweet and share with your friends. If you’re still stuck, you can also place a spell that magically puts a piece on the board right where it belongs!

Sounds easy, right? Not so fast...the more tips and spells you use, the less points you will earn!

You can also connect to OpenFeint and check your scores and ranking against players from all around the world. You can also unlock clever achievements as your skills improve.

Elemental is a free app for smartphones and tablets. The game is perfect for mobile phones like Samsung Galaxy S2, Samsung Europa, Samsung Galaxy S, Samsung Galaxy Ace, HTC Desire, HTC Evo, Motorola Defy, LG Optimus One and many others.

The app never managed to start even once on my Nexus 7. Crashed every time I tried to run it.

I tried twice to install on my phone. Both times it stopped at 100%, but didn't create a shortcut. I had no way to open it to play. I noticed that there is a $.99 version. Maybe it is the makers way of getting you to purchase the game.

A fun way to pass the time, but there are a couple issues I have: 1) sometimes the timer counts way too fast. 2) after I've been playing a few minutes it will no longer continue by pressing the Next button, I have to go back and re-enter the world to go on. 3) Occasionally crashes.
